Log Insight Functionality

Powerful Log Analytics

vRealize Log Insight provides faster analytical queries and aggregation than traditional tools, especially on larger data sets. It adds structure to all types of unstructured log data, so administrators can troubleshoot quickly, without needing to know the data beforehand. It delivers sophisticated log analytics, with real-time monitoring, search and analytics, and is coupled with a dashboard for stored queries, reports and alerts. Now IT can derive meaningful insights from terabytes of log data and correlate events across multiple tiers of a hybrid cloud environment in a single location, cutting down troubleshooting times, improving operational efficiency and reducing IT costs. vRealize Log Insight also provides a single location to collect, store and analyze logs at scale.

Enterprise-class Scalability

vRealize Log Insight helps get the job done faster. In recent internal testing, Log Insight was found to be 6 times faster than the leading solution in query tests across 1 billion log messages. Version 2.5 has been tested with up to 16 scale-out nodes, due to new clustering Technology.

Now with Reliable Windows and Linux Support

vRealize Log Insight provides support for everything in your datacenter, including your Windows desktops and servers. It also support Linux desktops and servers. It supports these systems with a lightweight agent that can be bulk deployed. The agent provides reliable transport for your log data via the Log Insight APIs, and also buffers log messages when there are network connectivity problems.

Easy to Use and Deploy

Since it is made available as a virtual appliance, vRealize Log Insight is easy to deploy. Its intuitive, GUI-based interface makes it easy to run simple interactive searches, as well as deep analytical queries for quick insights, providing immediate value and improved IT operational efficiency. There is no need to learn a new query language to get started. To make things even simpler, vRealize Log Insight automatically chooses the best visualization for your data, saving you valuable time. At the same time, vRealize Log Insight provides 20 new powerful visualizations to give virtualization administrators the clearest view possible of their infrastructure.

Built-in vSphere Knowledge

Developed by VMware experts, vRealize Log Insight comes with built-in knowledge and native support for
VMware vSphere with Operations Management. It is the solution best suited for your VMware environment. With vRealize Log Insight you can analyze logs beyond your virtual infrastructure and use a central log management solution to analyze data from your entire IT environment, including your physical infrastructure, operating systems, applications, network and storage devices.
